[Feature request] Login Screen #5

Closed KernalCheddar closed 2 months ago

Idea

Is there any way a login screen could be implemented so A) people cant view my emails just by browsing to the container and B) multiple users could sign into the same instance with different profiles.

A) people cant view my emails just by browsing to the container

Currently you can use a reverse proxy implementing a login page. There is also the VNC_PASSWORD environment variable (weak method). Finally, I'm currently working on implementing a login page functionality. So in this future, this feature will be embedded to the container.

B) multiple users could sign into the same instance with different profiles.

This cannot be achieved with a single instance of the container. Each instance of the container runs a single instance of Thunderbird. So you would need an instance per profile. I guess you could implement a reverse proxy that redirect to the correct instance depending on the logged user.

Access control feature via login screen now available with the latest image.
